The capacitor is charged to a voltage of 4.00 kV using a power source that is then removed. The gap between the plates is then filled by a dielectric layer. The charge on each plate stays constant at 2.50 kV despite the reduction in the potential difference between the plates. Calculate the initial capacitance value of the system.
